Lebanese Telecom Minister Boutros Harb tweeted today to explain to the Lebanese that the ministry had nothing to do with the Whatsapp outage and that the applicaton is facing problems. I can imagine how panicked all the Lebanese were. Whatsapp was bought by Facebook for $19 billion dollars and the first change done was making the “last seen” notification become optional.
The “last seen” notification has been editable oh iPhones for around 6 months now. I do believe that it being new on Android is just so they can have parity between devices and I doubt it has anything related to facebook.

I wasn’t aware of that as I use Android. You r probably right.
Thanks
